Congrats! The eggs you got from me were my axies first too! :D
 
In honor of my new tweakers, I started making decorations for a new 10 gallon tank for them to play in. Going for castle ruins this time. Here it is so far with and without the flash:

Congratulations on the eggs and babies, if you use plastic or real plants the axy will lay on them , they are easy to remove from the tank then. I use planted pots/tubs, you can pull the plants out easy then.
 
Yep, unfortunately she was in the "metroid" tank when she laid, so thee were eggs stashed in all these little nooks and crannies and all over the walls. Not a lot of plants in that tank except marimo moss balls.
 
If the eggs you pulled from the tank are hatching check the adult tank, you will be suprised how many you can miss, use a turkey baster to suck the little guys up who are still in there.

I was doing that at first, I switched to a syphon tube later, which ended up working a little better.
 
Wow your hatchlings look huge hehe! congratz :D
